That turkey looks really amazing! That Char Broil Big Easy a great job and did it very easy! Looks like ya'll had a great day at work! Turkey is good to have any time. We smoke a turkey or turkey breast from time to time. Thanks so much for sharing Mike! Stay safe and have a great weekend!
Thanks again Charley! Yes these smokers do a great job plus the grill works great too! I love turkey as long as its smoked right or even fried. Great thing about this is you can have fried turkey without all the oil! Thanks again for checking it out and have a great day brother!
That is just plumb terrific. I have the original Big Easy and do my thanksgiving turkey in that all the time. Don’t know why we only do turkey on thanksgiving. Great way to feed a crowd. Thanks Mike. Hope things are going well for you. Take Care.
No need to wait for Thanksgiving to smoke a turkey! I was just about to ask what the location was but then you answered that, you're at work! Jessica knows good food when she sees it! Broccoli Salad, the rolls, Devilled Eggs what a feast Mike!
That's my thinking too Patrick! Ole Jessi sure enjoyed that juicy turkey lol! I must admit those girls make some good broccoli salad and deviled eggs too! How do you usually cook your turkey, Patrick?
@@MrCastIron The few times I've cooked turkey it's been in the oven Mike. My best result was one year when I brined the whole bird for 24 hours, it was awesome!!! Another favourite of mine was roasting one stuffed with butter and bacon, that worked out pretty good too!!!
Butter and bacon!!?? Wow now that’s sounds like a great idea Patrick! I may have to do that sometime. I love using this Lodge Smoker Roaster Grill but every once in a while I’ll cook one in the conventional oven too. How did yours turn out? Was it as moist as you would like or was it kinda dry?
@@MrCastIron I'd say for my first time ever making a turkey it came out great and everyone loved it! My only issue seemed to be that the side of the turkey closest to the smoke outlet was dryer and a little more overdone compared to the rest of the bird. I'm going to try either putting a little foil on the basket to block the direct smoke or rotating the basket occasionally as it cooks. But I definitely expect next time to be even better. Thanks again for an awesome video man! Hope you had a great a Thanksgiving!
@@turbonegroegg @Double E, that's awesome, bud!! I haven't had it dry out before, but I think rotating it is a great idea! I'm so happy you came back and shared that with us!! We had a great Thanksgiving, and it sounds like you did too!!
Thank you! The turkey was a big hit! Very little left to make my broth but that’s ok! Thanks again for checking it out and I’m glad it was helpful! How do you cook your turkey?
Oh ok! Well there’s nothing wrong with that! I certainly appreciate you checking out our videos for sure! I really need to make more vegetable videos don’t I?
@@MrCastIron When I cook it I either roast it or my new favorite to save oven space is the crock pot haha It turns out great but nothing quite like a smoked turkey.
Yes, I think you may be right Big Lew! I looked at their website, and all they have showing is the turkey fryer like you just bought! Amazon still shows that they have them though. I love this SRG for the simple fact that you can add a little smoke to your turkey or whatever!
I think the product is discontinued. For that reason, I purchase 1 today. I like the smoke and grill option with the SRG. It is also little bigger than the gas Char-Broil that come with the mesh lid version.
I guess it wasn’t a big enough seller or something, and I don’t know why because I love the SRG compared to just the Big Easy. But on the other hand, if the Big Easy were all I could get, I would still get one. You can check here to see Char-Broil Big Easy Smoker amzn.to/3jiAu6e.
That was a great looking turkey Mike!! I didn't know that you could smoke on a Big Easy. I need a job there!! Take care bud, hope Laura didn't cause you any problems!!
Thank you Big Rob! Not only can you smoke on these dudes but you can grill and roast too! Hope you guys are doing good down in Gator-Country! Laura had a little mercy on us unlike our friends down in Louisiana! Take care brother and keep your head up!!
I have a green egg ceramic oven. I use coal brickettes as fuel for it, but this looks like a fun alternative! Should I subscribe to your channel? Actually nevermind, I decided I will. Keep up the cool content! 😉👍
Laura it is wonderful! Personally I won’t eat it any other way! Deep fried costs too much and it’s too dangerous plus it’s too messy also! Lol👎👎👎 But thanks for checking it out my friend!!
I remember one of the very first things I cooked in a Dutch oven was a good ole turkey breast! It turned out so good! Until I got this Char Broil Big Easy I would smoke a whole turkey in one of those Brinkman Charcoal Smokers or just bake it in the oven.
@@kathirice2058 I think it was a 16-pound bird, but I don’t cook by the pound; I cook by a thermometer anymore. It turns out to be more moist and fully cooked that way.

Thanks brother! Turkey is good anytime in my book! In my opinion these things do turkey right don't they?
Thanks!
You're welcome, and thank you too, my friend!! And thank you for the super thanks too!
Thank you for an in-depth process of how to smoke a turkey in the big easy, very helpful.

Awesome! I sure appreciate you, my friend! I hope you stop back here and let me see how yours turns out!!?? Thanks again!!

So delicious , love the wings , they are looking great .
Thank you! My wife loves the wings on chickens and turkeys too! I like it all though don’t you?
Hi Mike nice looking turkey. Great instructions.
Thank you! The turkey was a big hit! Very little left to make my broth but that’s ok! Thanks again for checking it out and I’m glad it was helpful! How do you cook your turkey?
@@MrCastIron im a vegetarian but enjoy seeing how others do things.
Oh ok! Well there’s nothing wrong with that! I certainly appreciate you checking out our videos for sure! I really need to make more vegetable videos don’t I?
Smoked turkey is my fav and this looks so moist and delicious Mike!! Yummy
Thanks Melissa! I like it smoked too! Fried is real good and this one is fried with no oil!! How do you generally cook a turkey?
@@MrCastIron When I cook it I either roast it or my new favorite to save oven space is the crock pot haha It turns out great but nothing quite like a smoked turkey.
Wow! Is the crockpot big enough for a large turkey or do you just do turkey breasts?
@@MrCastIron If I do it in the crock pot, I just do the breast but I think a small turkey would fit.
@@OneHotBite do you add vegetables or just cook the turkey breast?
Looked very very good! I thin CB discontinued those Big Easy SRG grills. What a shame, they look like a convenient unit.
Yes, I think you may be right Big Lew! I looked at their website, and all they have showing is the turkey fryer like you just bought! Amazon still shows that they have them though. I love this SRG for the simple fact that you can add a little smoke to your turkey or whatever!

@@MrCastIron It is easy to start without a doubt.
I've always wanted to try this

Char Broil Big Easy Smoker amzn.to/3jiAu6e
Turkey looks so tender and juicy. I would love to smoke one. but I don't have a big enough smoker for a whole turkey.
Thank you so much! You could always smoke a turkey breast or some legs! Is your smoker big enough for a turkey breast?
@@MrCastIron yes that I could do
I remember one of the very first things I cooked in a Dutch oven was a good ole turkey breast! It turned out so good! Until I got this Char Broil Big Easy I would smoke a whole turkey in one of those Brinkman Charcoal Smokers or just bake it in the oven.
Wish I new how big your turkey was so I could estimate the time per lb.
@@kathirice2058 I think it was a 16-pound bird, but I don’t cook by the pound; I cook by a thermometer anymore. It turns out to be more moist and fully cooked that way.
@kathirice2058 generally it's 10min per pound on turkey
@@jeffadair4005 Yes, in an oven, but not these Char-Broil Big Easy’s. Lol, I burnt a turkey up once, so I only cook by thermometers now.
@@MrCastIron just needed a guestination.
@@kathirice2058 Awesome! Happy Thanksgiving, my friend!
Nice
Thanks Marshall!
Turn down the music. I want to hear what you are saying
Yeah sorry about that. We don’t add music to our videos anymore!
Sure enjoyed that turkey for supper. Yes all the ladies think Mrs. Cast Iron is spoiled - well maybe a little 😂
Good job Mikey!
Yes it was real good!! And yes you are spoiled big time!
